What about we bet on whether he can't go a day without blah blah...? Odds then?

They are saying they don't want to take bets on these. A shame.

Since it's been mentioned - https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/45177178

Wright was part of the same squad as Beckham during France' 98, btw.

Quit gaslighting Batlord, you racist mofos.

Never.

Un-****ing-believable! "What else could it be?" How about the fact that he seems to miss goals I could score, for a start? Has ****-all to do with the colour of his skin. Jesus. What: we can't criticise players now, who deserve criticism, if they're black? Would this even be an issue if Sterling were silver, sorry white?
:banghead:

If Sterling was white then he probably wouldn't be targeted by racists.

When it comes to black v white players, which group do you think "deserves" more criticism? Remember, just because you ain't donning white robes doesn't mean that you can't be racist.

Sterling definitely gets more of a go-around from the papers because of his skin color.

i actually think sterling is a very good footballer outside of his finishing

but he's comedically bad at putting the ball in the net so idk

He's not being targeted by racists. Read the story: Ian Wright, who also happens to be black, is INTIMATING that the stick he is getting is because he's black, not because he can be a **** footballer. It's speculation, more an excuse than anything else and definitely Wright playing the race card.

I guarantee you, if Sterling was not black then Wright would not have made that comment. What about all the white guys who tend(ed) to be **** finishers? What about the Neville brothers? Responsible for so many mistakes that led to goals against Man U. Did anyone ever suggest this was due to racism? It's just an way to throw the spotlight off the fact that Sterling is often a **** player and try to blame it on his being black.
Prove it. I'm not aware of his receiving any stick due to his colour, any more than, say, Pogba, Rashford or Kante for instance. Maybe he does, maybe the evidence is there, but I ain't seen it. Just cos Wrighty suggests it doesn't necessarily make it true. His own words - "What else could it be?" - make it pretty clear he's grasping at straws here.

It is not uncommon for racists to vehemently reject the validity of every and any accusation of racism.
